Diagnosing viral diseases
The diagnosis of viral diseases is a major priority which calls for aetiology and pathogen characterization. Cirad is developing tests for the serological or molecular detection of a large number of microorganisms that attack cultures of banana, sugar cane, cacao, vegetable crops, palm trees including coconut palms. New detection methods are constantly reviewed to guarantee the quality of Cirad's phytosanitary testing in international quarantine services for sugar cane and the indexing of banana (VIC-INIBAP1), taking into account the risk of emergence of new viral strains, or even new pathogens. Through these studies we hope to develop diagnostic kits for onsite use by our partners. (Texte intégral)
